Babysitting Cheesiness

by Kikio3000


Mmm, Cheesiness!

“Hiya Auntie Fluttershy! Uncle Discord!”



A small colt beamed at the two adults at his door, looking up at two of his mom’s friends.

“Hello, Little Cheese!” The yellow pony, Fluttershy greeted. “How have things been?”

“Aw, mare! It’s been awesome! The shop’s earnings are better than ever, my mom and dad are on a date, the Cake parents have gone to meet friends that they have not seen in YEARS, and finally; cousin Pound Cake just proposed to Princess Flurry Heart!”

“They are on a date as well – that’s the reason she could not babysit me today and you two were called!”

“Oh, wow, that sounds exciting!” Fluttershy responded, clapping both hooves together in joy. She started flying above the colt. “And how are your grades?”

“Perfect A’s!” Cheese Pie yelled. “And I beat my entire math class in a test on multiplication, division, addition, and subtraction! I’m so excited!!”

“Oh, me too!” Fluttershy blurted, swooping from the sky and scooping up her newest nephew.

The swoop seemed kind of majestic, which caught Discord - Cheese’s Uncles’- attention.

“I am SO PROUD of you!”

“Thank you so MUCH!” Lil Cheese appreciated her actions. “I worked hard on it!”

“I’m sure you DID!” Fluttershy beamed with pride, squeezing her nephew in a soft hug.

“Um…can we come in, now?” Discord asked, breaking the mood. He had been walking on freezing cold snow on four legs for hours while doing some chores for Fluttershy. “My bottom half is starting to get cold out here.”

“Oh – oh, yes, you’re RIGHT,” Fluttershy realized.

“Come on in!” Lil Cheese invited, motioning for them to come in with his tiny hoof. Everyone came inside the shop and Discord shut the door after himself.

“Would you like some juice?” Lil’ Cheese asked.

“I think I will take some dragon fruit please, little colt,” Discord answered.

“Some orange juice for me, please,” Fluttershy quietly answered.

“OK, coming up.” The little one hopped into the kitchen behind them eagerly.

“Are you sure you don’t want US to do that?” Fluttershy asked, tilting her head.

“Oh no,” Cheese replied. “I know that you are the babysitters, but I wanna help you guys as well! At the very least, with the food! I know my way around the place and know where all the food is – especially since Uncle Discord’s paws are super sore! So, please - just sit and relax, as I let you two rest, Auntie!”

The adults sat down, actually really grateful for the invitation to rest and relax. Truth be told, Fluttershy’s hooves were a bit sore as well, but Discord was the one that had complained about his hurting paws because he was not used to not floating or walking on two feet.

“Oh…kayyy…thanks, kid!” Discord suddenly stopped sulking and brightened up, inadvertently binging Fluttershy into a tight, cuddly embrace in which she blushed and secretly enjoyed more than she usually would.

How did he know?” Discord pondered about the boy’s knowledge of his hurting paws and claws; about to ask the question out loud, when:”

Mmmmmmagic!

“AH!”

“What’s wrong, Discord?” Fluttershy asked.

“Nothing.”

“I could sense it,” Lil Cheese finally said aloud. A huge grin was plastered on his face. “Also, you were slightly limping and doing the barest of wincing, sir.”

“Oh, um, OK Lil Cheese-it, if you say so,” Discord answered.

In the literal blink of an eye, the poured drinks were in their respective limbs. The juices were back in the fridge; and after whizzing backward and forwards, Lil’ Cheese sat on the floor as if he had never moved.

Discord realized how long he had been gently squeezing his love- I mean friend- like a sweet plush toy.

“He really IS as freaky as his parents,” Discord thought, “But I guess that is why I like this child. So random.”


“Would you like any candy or something else sweet?” The little boy asked.


“Hm. Hmm. Hmmm. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm,” I would like a Chaos Parfait, please,” the Lord of Chaos said.

“And I would like some cotton candy please,” Fluttershy added.

“Oh, and child, do not forget to add a slight amount of the sweet lemon flavor, and the pink gummy butterflies on the side.”

Fluttershy blushed - Discord had paid attention to Fluttershy’s usual order.

“Well, I cannot forget my favorite mare’s order of course,” Discord blushed as well, twiddling his thumbs and looking sheepish and nervously looking away; visible beads of sweat flicking off like he was in a cartoon like The Goofy Toons.

“I…have to make sure that you have someone to constantly take care of you and what you want.”

Fluttershy giggled cutely, her muzzle crumpling in the grin slightly.

“Thank you,” She whispered.

“And a shot of espresso, a pinch of salt, and some blackberry current for the final touches, right, Uncy?”

“Yes, Cheeseball, that it correct.”

The foal smiled.



“Here you go,” Lil’ Cheese was ready with their orders and hoofed the food to them. “All on me! Well…my mom, really…she has a new hospitality rule in the house.” The boy stood up to his back legs and easily held his posture and stated in his best “Mom’s voice;” using the correct hoof motions for her statement. “I decree that anypony who looks after my little sugar bomb now gets free food and drink if they foalsit him. Also, all friends of my family (including Lil’ Cheese’s) get everything at Sugar Cube Corner…foreeEVERRRRRRR. Cross my heart, hope to fly, stick a cupcake in my eye!”

After doing the fluttery motions, Little Cheese Cake-Pie Sandwich stuck his eye with his hoof, careful to close it before directly poking it like his mom had said to do.

“Wow, that is SO nice of her!” Fluttershy beamed, and Discord nodded approvingly, happy for the free food after suffering in the cord, walking on four legs due to Fluttershy reminding him to not always use his magic in public due to new, neighbors in Ponyville – suspicious ponies who did not trust many creatures.

To them, the reason Ponyville was still named that way, as well as the fact that it was so diverse was because all the non-pony creatures had been bribed to stay and live there, since (without the many creatures,) it seemed like a really poor and boring place. Oh, how they assumed things do quickly. If only they could prepare themselves for how exciting Ponyville actually was. They would know soon.


Fluttershy wanted Discord to limit his powers until they all worked out an agreement for everyone to live in peace with the new noble-ponies who had decided to condescendingly live in their small little town.

“Thank you for the food and drinks,” The mare and draconequus said together.

“You’re welcome!” Shouted Lil Cheese enthusiastically. “Let’s go into the living room to eat.”

They all trotted over to the table and sat down on the chairs, Discord helping Lil’ Cheese up to his usual chair next to him.

Lil’ Cheese sat down comfortably with a slice of cheesecake and a healthy drink of milk.
The excited little guy wagged his tail and laughed, happy to be in good company.

“Soooo….you two, please tell me a story about yourself,” Lil Cheese bend down on the table; bring his hooves under his chin with a sly smile.

“Little one, elbows off the table,” Fluttershy said a little sternly. “What would your mother think?”

“My mother doesn’t care, as long as I don’t do that with strangers,” Cheese answered, “also, I am actually having them hover over the table; they are not actually on it.”

He lifted his elbows to show his innocence.

“Yep,” Discord noted, ”the kid’s clean.”

“That does sound like Pinkie,” Fluttershy remarked, “And I’m glad you respect the table and your manners.”

“Tee-hee-hee-hee!” The small one giggled. “Ha-ha, “table manners!” Also, thank you, ma’am!”

“So, what do you mean, “tell you about ourselves? I am guessing that you want to know more than…our jobs?”

“Yes, of course!” Cheese giggled, “I KNOW you guys’ works are going well; otherwise, even if you did not want to tell me that nothing was going well, you would have been at least 20% sadder when meeting me.”

“Wow, impressive!” Discord complimented. He did not pay attention to small details all the time, but even he thought about the smartness in what the child had said. “That is true!”

“Thank you!” Pinkie’s son said, ”So…any romance between you?”

“That is not for you to know.”

“Uncle.” Cheese deadpanned, “I will find out soon anyway. If you two start cuddling or getting ready for marriage and a baby, I would notice the changes.”

The adults laughed loudly and nervously. “I guess we can tell him a little…that’s all it is, anyway.” Fluttershy suggested. “It’s not that private anymore.”

“Well…um…” The creature scratched his back nervously. I guess we are dating…but it’s more like testing the waters…anyway, we have given each other gifts and cuddles and nuzzles and stuff like that.”

“Yeah,” Fluttershy giggled, “Tee-hee.”




“I even gave Fluttershy her favorite flower, a lily. I found a special immortal one where the Tatzlwurm resides.” Discord said chuffed; chest puffed out with a prideful pose.

“I really enjoy that beautiful flower, Discord,” Fluttershy cooed, resting her back on the belly of her companion unknowingly, blushing profusely. “That really was sweet…it smells like the best thing ever and it never has to wilt.”

Discord smiled, giving a lovely bow. “You are welcome my dear.”

“Aw! That’s so SWEET!” Lil’ Cheese grinned extremely wide, feeling touched as well.
- A hopeless romantic for now, as he would find his love someday soon.

Fluttershy and Discord hugged, blushed and slowly moved their heads away from each other – embarrassed.

“Ha-ha! Aw…” Lil’ Cheese laughed jovially.

“T-Thanks, Sweetie…”

“Yeah…”





After talking for longer, games were played. During the last game - charades, Discord made silly kissy faces, and he laughed at his joke but Fluttershy met his lips in a heart-melting kiss.

“Wait, should we be kissing in front of the little child?” Fluttershy asked, momentarily breaking the affectionate mouth press while still in a soft mid-squish on The Lord of Chaos’ belly.

“Of course! Do you know how many times a day my parents kiss?” The kid explained, “besides…I LOVE romantic stuff!”

The couple laughed, shaking their heads.

“I guess we can kiss in front of him on purpose once,” Fluttershy said, turning back towards her love.

“As long as you do not split on us to your parents,” Discord nervously warned.

“Of course not, I would not do that to you!” The child said, grinning, “I just LOVE mushy stuff!”


The couple laughed and kissed for longer, squeezing in a sweet embrace. They were stuck like that for a whole five minutes, Lil’ Cheese grabbing popcorn from nowhere and gawking in fascination at the pure emotion.





After the game of charades, Lil’ Cheese’s parents arrived home. He had Cheezie-promised not to tell them about his Aunt and Uncle’s kiss, but said that he had enjoyed the day. As the family and couple waved goodbye, Lil Cheese spoke to Discord in his head again.

Bye, Uncle Discord! Bye Auntie Fluttershy! Hope your relationship goes well, friends or more! You could add a little more chaos into your life with your presents for her! A baby flying Tropicsnake could be nice!”

This kid is weird, adorably weird.” Discord thought back, to himself. To his nephew, he said, “Well, for a pony, you are one of the most interesting ones. It is quite nice to live in a land where excitement still occurs. See you, sweet kid! Heh.”



Thank you, Uncle! Don’t forget to kiss! Hee-hee!”
